A blend of Old Chinese myths and avant-grade science fiction make Fear Effect 2 a true original.Like in the first game, you start with Hana (and a new character, Rain) doing an otherwise simple job when everything goes awry. Half the world is dying from EINDS (Environmentally Induced Nucleotides Degeneration Syndrome) and Jin, the same employer from the first game, assigns you to steal a DNA sequence that maps the gene that causes the disease. Problem is, the doctor guarding it just happens to be the richest man on the planet and has security out the Yin Yang. You go through HELL to find this disc, using both stealth and aggression to bypass all his security measures, and its Hell that chases after you when you steal it(literally! Think of the Taoist version of Demons, spiritual trials and torture and you will get my meaning exactly). Evidently, this EINDS was no product of nature and it was meant to wipe clean the earth of mankind. So you seriously tick off certain Immortal Beings for stealing this piece of Generic code.From here the game takes a sudden (and more serious) change of direction and you delve deep into spirit realms where you will meet figures of Chinese myth, namely the Eight Immortals in the mythical island Penglai and Qin Shi Haung in his ancient tomb of Xian, backed by his famed terracotta army. Throw in some killer action, humor and a lesbian encounter between the two protagonists and you’ll remember Fear Effect whether you liked it or not. You’ve never pla.
The fun level of this game is even higher than the first, along with the level of challenge. Some of the puzzles are just downright rediculously pointless as they are challenging like this machine where you have to match the right shape with a code for every little corner which I personally find almost impossible to figure out on your own unless you are willing to put hours and maybe even days into solving it (or if your cheap and get a cheat code for it.) Sorry, I have a life and better things to do. I just hope it doesn’t get worse in the next one. But I do compliment the game for fun level which is why I give it four stars.
Great game
cool game
Upon finishing FE 2, I have to admit it is one of the most unique and interesting games I have ever played. Its graphics and character models are superb, lending the game an ambience that is simultaneously eerie and beautiful. Although it does borrow its slanted camera angles from the RE series, it still has a wholly original and distinctive feel. The voice acting is also to be commended; it’s among the best that I have ever experienced. Despite the awkward control and poorly designed inventory scheme, what really distinguishes FE 2 from others in its genre to make it a classic is how it incorporates Chinese mythology into a unique (and mature) sci-fi storyline using compelling characters. Usually action video games revolve around hackneyed plots of military operatives and shadowy government conspiracies, so many will be pleased to discover this alternative. The storyline manages to unfold in a well-paced and coherent manner that keeps the player anticipating the next CG cut scene and many of the puzzles are neatly integrated into the context of the plot. The main drawback of this game is its difficulty. Much of the challenge in the action sequences is simply mastering the art of trial and error as well as the controls which compound the frustration. Needless to say, the added "quick load" feature of FE 2 is a merciful addition to the series. Many of the puzzles are equally trying, but, in the final assessment, they are a big part of what make FE 2 so great. They s.
Fiance is super happy although I wish I had thought about looking to see if there was a manual or cover art. There was none and I didn’t see it mentioned so I didn’t even think about it. Now he has me looking for that stuff. Argh. Discs were awesome though.
After Eidos created a phenomenal anime-based action/adventure game that was both inovative and fun, they’ve decided to back it up with a sequel that will hopefully top its predecessor. Although that in itself is going to be very difficult, Eidos has practically gotten rid of the load times, included more than 2 hours of computer generated sequences, and stuffed in 800 different camera angles!!! Fear Effect: Retro Helix will have the same type of adventure gameplay as the last game, including all of the oriental themes. The main difference with this title is that it is definately geared towards the older audience. Lets just say you will see plenty of women wearing next to nothing outfits, and you will watch them change into another next to nothing outfit! This is no joke, Eidos wasnt even allowed to put their magazine ad in any publications because it was labeled too "risque". I feel anyone who enjoyed the first Fear Effect or is a fan of the adventure genre should definately check this game out when it is released on February 20, 2001. I know i can’t wait to get my hands on it!
Fear Effect 2 is a great game, it combines the action of meatal gear with the puzzles of resident evil.The controls are easy the graphics are the best ever seen on the playstation and the sound and voice acting are great.this title does have alot of mature themes so it isnt for everyone.
I think this is a great game, and would recommend it to anyone who likes puzzles and challenges. It changes between disks more, but it’s worth it.
Being a fan of the first FE I was pretty excited when I heard about FE, so I naturally purchased it. Sure enough it was more than a worthy sequel. This game has some of the best brainteasers I’ve ever seen in a videogame. The graphics are also amazing and one of the reasons I like the series so much. But the story is the real reason to try this game,although it’s definately not suited for the 12 and under crowd. The controls on the other hand are nothing to write home about. Taking a page from Resident Evil’s controls wasn’t the best idea but you will eventually get used to them and they detract from the experience. Definately a game to check out.
